So yeah... a friend of mine told me to watch this. My initial reaction was "no", since it's probably the gayest show that could ever be made. After two weeks of him bugging me about it and sending me the links to the Youtubes, I gave it an eye.
I am pretty surprised.
Unlike many kids shows, it does not assume kids are retarded. Of course, the story is still cheesy since 'friendship saves the day', but other than that, it shows morals and life lessons in a very entertaining way.
The humor, which is prominent, is rather wide and ends up making me laugh every now and then (see episode 9 flutter shy's voice).
Lastly, the animation is gorgeous. You wouldn't think this was made for kids.
I suggest checking it out:
